Team ?'s Prototype Shooter

It's a pretty nice shooter isn't it?

Too bad it isn't ours...

A few weeks ago, we were in our shop and made a gut-wrenching discovery:

Our prototype shooter was VERY susceptible to variations between different balls. From one ball to the next, the shot distance would vary by up to SEVERAL FEET. A perfect 10 makes out of 10 attempts swish shot with one ball would cause a different ball to shoot right over the backboard.

We had a problem...

A very generous team actually loaned us their completely functional prototype shooter so that we could compare ours with theirs.

The video above is a clip from some of our testing with this other team's prototype.

Co-Opertition at its finest!
